WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 27, 1943 MAKE LETTERS IN ALL CASES BRIEF T0 GET RESULTS ESPECIALLY DO CONGRESS- MEN BECOME TIRED OF WADING THROUGH LONG DRAWN OUT PROTESTS By JACK STINNETT AP Features Service Writer WASHINGTON, Jan. 27,--From time to time:in these columns, I have advised: “If you don’t, agree, write your Congressman.” Perhaps. I' have done both Congressmen and readers an injustice in not laying down a few basic rules. Some Congressmen justifiably go beserk over the letters they re- ceive. One recently received a let- tér written in almost undecipher- able Jonghand on both sides of 110 pages of legal-size stationery.
